Calreticulin Transacetylase (CRTAase) catalyzes the transfer of acetyl groups from polyphenolic acetates (PAs) to the receptor proteins and modulates their biological activities. CRTAase was conveniently assayed by the irreversible inhibition of cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (GST) by the model acetoxycoumarin, 7,8-diacetoxy-4-methylcoumarin

Intracellular pH (pHi) of turtle bladder mucosal cells was studied by the trapped fluorescent indicator technique. Bladders efficiently accumulated and converted 4-methylumbelliferyl acetate to its pH-sensitive derivative 4-methylumbelliferone (4MU). Excited at the pH-indifferent wavelength 334 nm, bladders fluoresced a uniform
This paper examines covalent reactivity of AchE with respect to cationic and uncharged methylphosphonates and substrates in the absence and presence of cationic ligands selective for the active center and the peripheral anionic site. The organophosphorus inhibitors are enantiomeric alkyl
Streptococcus pneumoniae among other Gram-positive pathogens produces O-acetylated peptidoglycan using the enzyme OatA. This process occurs through the transfer of an acetyl group from a donor to the hydroxyl group of an acceptor sugar. While it has been established that
Our earlier work established a convenient assay procedure for acetoxycoumarin (AC): protein transacetylase (TA) by indirectly quantifying the activity of glutathione (GSH)-S-transferase (GST), the extent of inhibition of GST under the conditions of the assay represented TA activity. In this
